Abbott Nutrition i-STAT G3+ Cartridges - 25/Box

i-STAT cartridge technology streamlines traditional lab technology, yet contains many of the components found in complex lab testing systems. Each test cartridge contains chemically sensitive biosensors on a silicon chip that are configured to perform specific tests. To perform a test, 2 to 3 drops of blood are applied to a cartridge, which is then inserted into the i-STAT handheld. Prior to running a test, each cartridge initiates a series of preset quality control diagnostics, from monitoring the quality of the sample to validating the reagent.

Each i-STAT single-use cartridge uses advanced biosensor technology that applies microfluidics to process the most comprehensive range of clinical tests in a single platform, allowing clinicians to access the time-sensitive diagnostic information they need, when and where they need it. Available tests include diagnostic indicators related to disease state and clinical practice guidelines.

Test-specific, single-use i-STAT cartridges are available for a range of clinical tests, including cardiac markers, lactate, coagulation, blood gases, chemistries and electrolytes, and hematology.
